Title :
A Cost-Effective Modular Down Converter for S-Band WEFAX Reception
Abstract :
The relocation of weather satellite facsimile downlinks from VHF into S-band has generated a requirement for reliable, low cost microwave receiving equipment. This paper explores many of the design trade-offs encountered in developing one such receiver system.
